My name is LinuxOverWindows because Linux is a far better OS then Windows,  I know I don't have good grammer which is why I never went into English, if you want to write an Essay go for it I 'll do something practicle and you can do something that doens't matter such as writting

And why does the Ipod Touch suck also, a touch screen media player is a bad idea, there is nothing wrong with a media player then can handle movies but having a touch screen is completely pointless.  The best firmware on the web is Rockbox hands down.  It does everything a normal human needs with a meida player and because it's open source if anyone wants to edit it there free to. 

Why base a Media player on a PDA os, that doesn't make sense, why would you use a PDA level OS to run a media player.  Why not just run a basic firmware.

This sounds amazing, it would be funny to see Trebek lose to a computer

Wow, Just wow lets do the analysis here, I need to prove that over analyzing things are bad.

Okay so this paragraph in summary says dice rolls aren't random enough! Thats it, nothing else, the summary says dice rolls aren't random.

Good good glad we got that done next paragraph

Okay this paragraph tells us that there is a machine to roll dice, hmm okay awesome lets sum up the two paragraphs....

Next paragraph to summerize

Okay this machine takes picture and sends to a server! done, this paragraph is done.

Done I've summerized the entire article, how hard is it to read NOT between the lines, don't expand, don't read into, don't over analysis anything. Look it over get the fact and then your done, Only "ender" and me can seem to do that, and BTW I got the quotes from the article

So what don't I understand, This machine rolls dice because dice rolls in computers aren't random enough, it takes pictures and sends them to a server to be looked at. THATS IT THAT IS ALL THIS MACHINE DOES. Stop telling me I don't know how to read english, If you didn't get that, then you don't how to read english because you over read that article, that's all this is about nothing else.

I've just proven my point and shown that I know what I'm talking about!

Thanks
LinuxOverWindows

Thanks you, you see my point :-)

Your awesome

But I did read that article, did you. It clearly says he's trying to get better random dice rolls, which is exactly what I said. He should grab a random number lib, analyzing million of dice rolls wont help produce better random dice production. What they have to do is use a natural random production method. This idea just doesn't work, seriously I don't understand how this is going to help produce random Die rolls.

If people aren't happy with the random dice rolls in games then how about getting off the computer and opening up the board game, although of course a person can influence the dice rolls with how they throw the dice so are you telling me that humans don't have random enough rolls. This problem is not serious if people are so concerned that there games don't have random enough dice rolls then don't play the game. There meant for fun, it's not like there going to use these dice rolls to vote a government in.

People need to grow up and stop being so bothered by something so small, this is a very very little problem, I'm sure there get by.

So I did actually read the article, So it rolls dice very nice, It take pictures of the rolls and sends the pictures to a server. The dimensions of the is machine are The Dice-O-Matic is 7 feet tall, 18 inches wide and 18 inches deep. It has an aluminum frame covered with Plexiglas panels. Any other question about me not reading the article. I've read it and I don't see the point of this machine.

I know he's trying to get Random Dice rolls but there are easier and more practical methods to produce random numbers. If he really needs randomized numbers then grab an advanced Math lib or even better use a atomic or molecular random event. Either way this isn't very practice.

I did and it never says why it's rolling the dice, It says how it's rolling the dice and what happens to the dice after there rolled but in the end rolling rice will only let you randomize a number usually between 1 .. 6.

What are they trying to Observe here, Do they think there going to find a magical pattern in rolling dice that can predict future evens :-O Thats it.

I just don't see the application this Robot solves and how anyone or why anyone would fund this but then again maybe it will produce something we can use.

Actually your right, what they should offer is a NO OS installed notebook, your buying the hardware any way so why bother with the OS install, just download and burn the ISO you want and spend all of the 30 min required to install it your self.

ya but must company's will still change you for the Windows install. The problem is Company's like Dell and Toshiba have contract with Microsoft so even if you want to install your own later you still had to pay for Windows

A billion years, really? Sweet I can be sure my Data will be available for my Great Great Great .... Grandkids. :-)

If you can't install Linux using a live cd Graphical Installer then you really shouldn't even be on slashdot lol.

Why not just get a Linux CD and install yourself. Linux has also come along way with how it's installed, it use to be at it's best a curses based installer and now has come to live cd's.

It's not what company will ship you a PC with linux installed just ask them to NOT install windows. It's easy to install Linux and one could do it Trust me.
